My colleagues are making preparations to deploy corporate laptops to our users. These laptops are installed with a remote access VPN client that allows the laptop to connect to our firewall and allow the users to work from home.
When the users are connected to our network, all internet traffic is routed trough and inspected by the firewall, and the internet traffic is scanned and some content is blocked. However, when the users don't have the VPN active yet, they can use the laptop to browse the internet "unsafe".
What is common practice in this situation? Do you block internet traffic on your corporate laptops so they can only browse the web when the VPN is established, or do you also allow users to browse the web without the VPN connected? What about the security risks?
